Framed "Waiting for Horses

"Waiting for Horses"
11x14
Oil on Panel
$375
Gold frame

I was nearing the end of an autumn trip to Vermont (more about that in the next few days). I had packed the car but had just one morning to get a painting in before I had to take off for a committment. I went to The Billings Farm, a wonderful part of the National Historic Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historic Parkpark.  It's in Woodstock, where I used to teach high school art. I found a comfortable place to paint, out of the way near the end of the parking lot and used my few hours well. There was a horse pasture ahead of me but the horses were out of sight. Hence the title. I loved the hills in the background and the fence doing its thing, just meandering. I had a wonderful window on the world.
